Kristin’s Botox Overload
Tony-winning actress and singer Kristin Chenoweth admitted a few years back that she started getting Botox injections to help with her migraines when she turned 35. “I haven’t had a full- blown headache since,” she says. But what other treatments has Kristin, now 48, sought since first trying Botox, and has she gone too far? “I think she looks a touch ‘done,’ but overall she looks good,” says plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Youn, who, like the other experts consulted for this story, hasn’t worked with Kristin. Plastic surgeon Dr. Kirk Brandow says she looks “a little plastic,” but feels on the whole the Broadway star is “aging extremely well.” Cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Kenneth Mark sees room for improvement. “She has way too much Botox in her forehead,” he says, “which has left her with a heavy brow.” Aesthetic nurse specialist Jill Caruso also thinks Kristin could be overusing Botox and fillers. “But her skin looks amazing,” Caruso points out. “Kristin is a natural beauty, and she’s still gorgeous!”

EYES Plastic surgeon Dr. Leonard Hochstein believes Kristin had an eye-lift. “You can see the lifting of the outer corner of the eye,” he notes. The cost starts at about $3K. SKIN “It looks like she takes great care of her skin,” Caruso says. “Her regimen could include lasers, retinoids, moisturizers, serums and daily SPF.” Laser treatments run about $1.5K to $4K. CHEEKS Dr. Brandow thinks Kristin looks good but is overdoing the fillers in her cheeks, creating “funny bulges in her laugh lines.” He estimates the cost of fillers at $2K per treatment. LIPS “Her lips look like they’ve been plumped with an injectable like Juvéderm,” observes Dr. Youn. The price tag is $500 to $750 per syringe.
